For Sleaford, T Curran, R Sach, J Thomas and A Wills took an early lead before the opposition pulled away mid game and they lost 12-24.
T Ingham’s set of T Causon, C Grosse and L Davies kept a much tighter grip in a close game and were unfortunate to lose out 12-19.
D Fisher, T Thackray, R Barnes and R Sivyer started well before dropping a five midway but kept pace with their opponents apart from that and were unlucky to go down 19-25.
J Bennett, with his set of R Cooper, D Rogers and M Dunne were well off the pace, never finding a good length against a strong set and were well beaten 8-31.
C Rands, with R Workman, T Harding and B Ellison found the opposition just too strong during the second half after keeping pace at the start and went down 13-28.
